Key Terms

performance stock unit ("PSU") award, total shareholder return, Russell 3000 index, Rule 10b5-1 trading plan

4 terms

performance stock unit ("PSU") award financial

"pursuant to the terms of a performance stock unit ("PSU") award granted on May 15, 2023"

total shareholder return financial

"Represents shares issued in connection with the Company's total shareholder return satisfying specified benchmarks"

Total shareholder return is the overall gain an investor gets from owning a stock, combining changes in the share price plus any cash payouts like dividends, and assuming those payouts are reinvested in more shares. Investors use it like a single score that shows the true return on their investment—similar to checking both the growth of a savings account and the interest earned—to compare how well different companies or investments perform over time.

Russell 3000 index financial

"satisfying specified benchmarks relative to the Russell 3000 index pursuant to the terms of a PSU award"

A broad stock market index that tracks the performance of the roughly 3,000 largest publicly traded U.S. companies by total market value, representing almost the entire U.S. equity market. Investors use it like a big basket or thermometer: it provides a simple snapshot of overall U.S. stock market health, serves as a benchmark for funds and portfolios, and helps measure diversification, risk and returns over time.

Rule 10b5-1 trading plan regulatory

"The sale reported in this Form 4 was effected pursuant to an existing Rule 10b5-1 trading plan"

A Rule 10b5-1 trading plan is a pre-arranged schedule that allows company insiders to buy or sell stock at specific times, even if they have inside information. It helps prevent accusations of unfair trading by making these transactions look planned and transparent, rather than sneaky or illegal.
